I can't believe how fast he's growing!!! Its awesome. I spend a lot of time making sure he has everything to make him healthy. Not always happy though he hates Tuesday and Friday night feeding. (Calcium days) lol.

Thanks, he sure is great! And yes, I am looking for one currently. I may get one from a breeder on the forum :). I want to wait until I get back from my trip in June so I can be with it all summer. I have wanted one for a few years now, I just wanted to do my research first. Good looking little one you have there

Thank you I didn't do as much research as I should have witch left me scrambling and studying. I wish i would have checked this forum out a month prior to me getting him but I'm addicted to him now. I want mine to look like this tort when it gets older.

There are many sulcata owners with great looking tortoises. But at least you made it here. You seem to be doing fine. Keep updating as you go! Everyone here is very friendly.

how old is he or she on the 2nd pics?

Not exactly sure. They thought 4 months when I bought him. So 6 months. 1 weeks. I got him on 2/19/12. The pics were taken on the 2/25/12 on the first ones and 5/3/12 on the second. :)

Make sure to use Vita-Shell! That is the only constant in his life since day 2! everytime he goes into a growth cycle he gets a good coat even now that he is 12.

I do once every 2 weeks and a olive oil rub 2 days later. ;) I read you used olive oil on walking rock before.
